unfortunately you have to remove the door panels. i have been pondering a way to cut out the grilles molded into the panel and replace with a removable grille but i havent had time lately

door panel is attached on some clips and a screw or two. Screws are located right around the door pull lever. Once you remove them, remove block-off trim around the door pull lever and start pulling on the door panel from the bottom and work your way up, you'll have to lift door panel up once it's free to clear door lock pin. Once it's all off, see if all the clips are still on the door panel... if not, remove them from the door and install back on the door panel before reinstalling panels.

Good luck!
